Dare to Be Afraid

You ask me what love is
but I know nothing about that
I only understand
things that can be measured

Today it's been exactly 40 years since
The Beatles were the Lonely Hearts
Club band
Your grandmother had just turned 18

Another time in the same country,
the same old fear with another name
from cold war to warm
winters and black holes
You stand on the frontlines again
Everything, everything, everything
comes to the person who
dares to be afraid

A valentine in blood, chocolate
They've blocked off the whole city
And everyone knows the storm is coming
The band just climbed up on the stage
It'll go badly for whoever throws the first stone
Everyone knows the storm is coming

Riot police everywhere
But there are so many more of us than of them
I get shoved, lose my breath
And the rain pours down
You stand in the frontlines again
Everything, everything, everything
comes to the person who
dares to be afraid
Do you dare to be afraid?
